After the latest update to the VRM portal now PV Chargers that are using the VE. bus adapter to USB on the Cerbo GX are now totaling PV Watts in the DC Power section instead of the PV Charger section totals?
Please correct this ASAP!

For clarification, do you mean the ve direct to usb victron mppts?
It is helpful to include a screenshot of what you are seeing as well it helps with the description.
Yes, I will take an image of the VRM today once solar production gets high enough to clearly show it
I have one MTTP solar charger on a VE,direct connection and I have two others using the VE.direct to USB adapters connected to the Cerbo units USB port, this has worked fine for years and now the USB connected units stop reporting to the PV charger section of the VRM and report the current to the DC power section as a negactive value, If I reboot the Cerbo it will most of the time correct this issue but it reverts back to the incorrect reporting within hours.
Are they showing on the GX though?
Do you have DC loads and chargers or is that just on because?
If you switch it off does it clear the problem?
There are limitations using that tile.
as long as they are all actively monitored. I am wondering if something is going wrong with the comms on the usb to the GX
This is an off-grid RV system that has been working just fine for years until very recently! I do have DC loads and turning the DC load panel off does not fix the reporting issue that the VE.direct connected via the VE.direct to USB adapter are using.
Otherthan the vrm update, has anything else changed on the system? e.g.firmwware or program changes?
No, nothing has changed.
What firmware are you currently running on the GX?
Are the usb mppts in a hub or directly in the GX? Sometimes an external hub can cause issues.
Do they report correctly on the local screen or remote console? If communication is patchy, then the system will put it where it thinks it goes.
latest firmware, they are in a hub and I just replaced it, now for the last 12 hours it is reporting correctly
